Life is Stressful Enough, Your Photography Shouldn't Be

Capturing Your Love Story from the Very Beginning

Photos by Rich Burkhart provides photography services for all kinds of occasions in Savannah and the surrounding areas. Rich relies on a photojournalistic/artistic approach to control the lighting and composition, all while helping you to feel relaxed and in the moment. Rich's assistant photographer and videographer, Alicia May, helps him on most jobs. So, you’ll be getting two photographers for the price of one!

When you contact us, we’ll schedule an in-person consultation. If this isn’t feasible, we’ll discuss your ideas over the phone or via email. Once the consultation is completed, Rich will make sure he has everything he needs to capture each special moment.

You don’t have to be a model to feel comfortable in front of the camera. If you like holding hands, snuggling, and looking lovingly at one another, you’ll be a pro. While we provide some guidance and demonstrate poses, it’s not just about the cutest pose or perfect smile- It’s about being authentic, being comfortable with one another, and with yourself. It’s about you feeling relaxed while focusing on the one you love and not worrying about the camera. A stress-free approach and years of photojournalism experience allows me to help you feel at ease in front of the camera, so photo time goes by quickly and we all have a fun experience!

Portfolio

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Words cannot express how amazed we are by the photos from our wedding. You and your assistant made two people who truly hate having their photo taken so comfortable throughout the entire process. Our photos are even better than we had imagined they would be. Thanks again!

Rich and his assistant did a phenomenal job with our destination wedding in Savannah! Rich was responsive to our e-mails, prompt in the turn around period for our photos, and very organized. He did a great job capturing candid moments that we will cherish forever. I would definitely recommend his services if planning a wedding around Savannah!

Rich was great from the start! I had a destination wedding so scheduling wasn't the easiest since I was coming from another state. Rich was always quick to get back to me, and made scheduling easy. He and Alicia made everything so simple and fun, yet organized and efficient. He really kept track of time and kept things moving the whole time. My pictures turned out amazing!!

Carly

There are not enough words to express how happy I was with Rich and his assistant work. They made sure to capture every moment of me and my husbands extra special day. I was highly surprised and pleased with how fast my photos got back to me. The quality and editing was perfect. I would highly recommend Rich to anyone!

Kristen

Immediately you could tell Richard's vast knowledge and experience of the business. He has a "eye for the client". He's also an awesome person to work with.... and that means a whole lot on your wedding day. I would recommend Richard to any client, whether it's a local wedding or a destination wedding. He knows Savannah/Tybee Island and all around and he's Top of the Line in Quality, Creativity and Personality!
